Meet PEGGY – Your First Sewing Project Made Simple!

Looking for an easy sewing project that's actually useful? Say hello to PEGGY, our Large Lined Peg Bag sewing pattern. Designed especially with beginners in mind, this pattern walks you through step by step so you can create something practical, stylish, and homemade.

PEGGY is built so that there are no raw edges anywhere — every seam is enclosed, giving a properly professional finish inside and out, with no binding or overlocking needed. The finished bag slips straight onto a child-size coat hanger, ready to hang on the line.

What You Will Learn / Techniques

  • Accurate Marking: Press a centre crease and use the templates to mark the opening precisely.
  • Creating the Opening: Sew around the outer line, cut along the inner line, then snip the curve so it turns cleanly.
  • Turning and Top-Stitching: Push the lining through, match the edges, press and top-stitch around the opening.
  • The No-Raw-Edges Assembly: A clever construction method that encloses every seam — it looks unusual mid-way through, but the finish is worth it.
  • Finishing: Leave a gap at the top for the coat hanger, turn the bag through the bottom, close the gap by hand for a neat finish, then press.
